Here’s a dare: try to watch one of those ‘real time’ debt calculators without allowing your blood pressure to rise. In this webinar, two experts on corporate debt - Dr. Edward Altman, the Max L. Heine Professor of Finance at New York University’s Stern School of Business and inventor of the Z” Score, and CreditRiskMonitor CEO Jerry Flum – will discuss the looming debt crisis in a way that will help procurement and supply chain professionals better assess the financial risk of their publicly-traded suppliers.

Perspectives on supply chains have largely evolved from a literal ‘chain’ to a network or ecosystem view. In this webinar, Rosslyn Data Technologies will talk about how the time has come for supplier intelligence to do the same. By combining multiple data sources with powerful analytics, relationships and risks emerge that would not be visible (or actionable) with traditional, segmented data sources.

When you think of all of procurement’s standard processes, which screams ‘agile’ at you? It’s probably not strategic sourcing – which frequently prompts complaints from internal stakeholders and suppliers that just can’t understand why it takes so long to go from need identification to contract. In this case study webinar, Anadarkowill talk about how they contributed to enterprise agility with ‘dynamic sourcing’.
